STOWING AND DEPLOYING THE MOTOR

When stowing or deploying the motor, keep fingers clear of all hinge and pivot points and all moving parts. Practice proper ergonomics

when stowing and deploying the motor to prevent injury.

Moving the motor creates a variety of pinch points. The motor head will create a pinch point if the Steering Tension Knob is loosened

and the motor head slides to the top of the Quick Release Depth Collar. Grasp the Shaft and prevent it from sliding all the way down to

prevent the pinch point. Grasp the motor away from the area that may come in contact with another area of the motor to prevent injury.

Watch for pinch points on the Tiller when moving the motor or using the telescoping handle.

When the motor is being transported, on water or land, it is important to place the motor completely out of water. The motor should be

positioned up close to the Bowguard. The motor should be positioned on the Rails of the Motor Rest and in the stowed position. Release

the Depth Collar and slide it along the Shaft until it makes contact with the Bowguard, then re-secure the Depth Collar. For added

security during transport secure the Hold Down Strap. This provides a secure stow and holds the motor in place during transportation

when it is subject to high levels of shock and vibration. Failure to secure the motor may result in injury or damage to the unit.

To Deploy the Motor, simply pull back and lift the

motor off of the mount with the Pull Grip and Rope.

Lower the motor into the water using the Pull Grip

and Rope. The motor will lock into the deployed

position automatically.

To Stow the Motor, pull back and lift the motor out

of the water with the Pull Grip and Rope. Lower the

motor Lower Unit onto the Motor Rest using the Pull

Grip and Rope. The motor will lock into the stowed

position automatically. Wrap the Hold Down Strap

over top of the Motor Shaft to secure the motor.

WARNING

Avoid contact with the Bowguard while stowing, deploying or

operating. The Shaft and mechanisms within the Bowguard

can create pinch points. Avoid contact to avoid injury.

Always use the Pull Grip and Cable to stow and deploy the

motor to prevent injury.
